Chapter 12: Relics

Huaxi Water Pavilion, Pavilion and Curved Bridge, Warm Building Pavilion, Guanghu Bishan.

Although this Chen mansion is magnificent and beautiful, every few steps, there are small servants and maidservants holding tea, but everyone in the lobby has no intention of playing, they are all frowning, and their expressions are secretly angry and embarrassed.

"Ah Heng's father's relics? No, no! ”

Hearing the question of the patriarch Chen Jing, Chen Zhan, whose back was already rickety, leaned on his cane, and his old face became a little angry:

"Back then, it was already unkind to the clan to sit back and watch him being taken up the mountain by the Xuanzhen faction, but now, how can he take it without asking and use his father's relics to retreat from the enemy? Not the son of man! Not the son of man! ”

asked Chen Zhan to take the lead in speaking, and several clan elders who were good friends with him also dissuaded him one after another, expressing their opinions, and the originally dull hall became noisy for a while.

"That's it! Stop it! ”

Chen Kuang's forehead was beating wildly, and he shouted, and his old body exploded with scorching blood, suppressing the sound quietly.

"Not the Son of Man? Ridiculous, ridiculous! Is there not a tribe for him to eat, to be fed and clothed? This hasn't made him dedicate himself to the clan, just borrowing some relics from his father, Chen Zhan, you are here to push back and block, what is your intention? ”

Chen Jing's old eyes were sharp, and he looked at Chen Zhan coldly:

"Back then, the clan just borrowed your hand to raise Chen Heng, and he hasn't officially passed it on to you! What are you trying to get out of here! ”

"Besides......"

He turned to the elders again:

"Since Chen Heng joined the Xuanzhen School, he has never sent a letter in three years. Such a mean and ungrateful person, you are here to speak for him, when he is a member of the Chen clan? As for himself, I'm afraid that he will have long since abandoned this surname! ”

"Back then, it was true that we did a bad job, and he should have complained in his heart."

An elder of the clan persuaded: "A dignified son, reduced to becoming the head of others, this is the place in the clan that does not live with him." ”

"There is no place in the clan that can't live with him, if there is no support from the clan, how can he be a son? I-"

Before Chen Jian could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Zhan slamming the scepter on the ground.

"The clan has raised him, but this kindness has long been paid off after he entered the mountain, and there is still a lot left."

Chen Zhan took a few steps forward: "Do you dare to admit that after he went up the mountain, didn't he use the tiger skin of the Xuanzhen Sect to make profits for himself?" Didn't you earn the few lands in Xicheng and the fertile land outside the city in the name of Heng'er? ”

"Even Xi'er was taken by the Yangshan Dao people and asked for this, isn't it also your arrogance? Not only did he beat the Dao Tong of the Yangshan Daoist, but he also threatened to ask the Xuanzhen faction to send out Taoist soldiers and exterminate the law field of the Yangshan Daoist, who can you blame?! ”

“……”

Chen Guo was speechless for a while, but turned his face away in shame.

Who would have thought that Yan Zhen would actually die!

His Chen clan's biggest reliance and backer fell suddenly!

On that day, he used the spirit of wine to humiliate the Yangshan Daoist who had been filthy on weekdays, and looked at the faces of the Yangshan Daoist who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and his heart was really happy.

But the world is always impermanent.

It didn't take long.

When Yan Zhen died, the news of Chen Heng's punishment reached Rong Guo for a long time.

The Chen family was stunned.

The people of Yangshan Dao clapped their hands and said that they were happy, and drank the wine for a day and night, even the eight maidens.

After this.

The Yangshan Daoist not only demanded 10,000 taels of silver and ten boxes of pearl topaz from the Chen family, but also forced the patriarch Chen Kuang to marry his youngest daughter Chen Xi to him as a concubine.

The Chen clan, who had lost the protection of the Xuanzhen faction, was powerless to fight against the Yangshan Dao people, and they were in danger when they saw it......

"Hey, Xi'er, come in."

Facing the unhappy clan elders, Chen Guan sighed heavily and stretched out his hand.

With the inaudible footsteps, a thirteen or fourteen girl in a pink skirt turned outside the door, her skin was fair, almost blown, beautiful and delicate, and her expression was even more pitiful, and at first sight, it made people feel pity.

After Chen Xi was summoned in by his father, he tearfully saluted the elders of the clan. Timid stood in the middle of the hall.

"Brothers in the clan, Xi'er is my little daughter after all, how can I give it up?"

Chen Guo also had tears in his eyes, and trembled and pointed to Chen Xi, who was as slender as a weak willow in the hall: "You look at her appearance of being so young and not doing more, if she is sent to the Yangshan Daoist, how can she have the life to come back?" ”

"Thirteenth brother, I know that you don't like me, it's all because that fool of my son made his own initiative and put Heng'er in the hands of Yan Zhen, so that you always resent me."

After he glanced at Chen Zhan, he fell to the ground violently: "But Xi'er is also called your uncle after all, you watched her grow up, third brother begs you, save her!" ”

The old situation was full of tears.

Chen Zhan's face was cloudy.

But before Chen Zhan could reply, a young man's arrogant laughter spread throughout the huge Chen Mansion.

"Save her? How to save? What else do you have to do? ”

The young man's voice was erratic, like a ghost: "My father is going to condemn this woman, who dares to disobey?" Maybe after he comes out on top, I'll be able to drink the soup! ”

"Not good!" The old situation changed violently.

The laughter was so loud that the sons and guards in the house did not react at all, obviously being quietly restrained, and they didn't even have time to warn.

"Thirteenth brother! Hurry up! Third brother, please! ”

He yelled at Chen Zhan, and then jumped off the hall, carrying his daughter on his back, trying to escape.

But before he could rush out of the hall, a group of yellow-clothed people blocked the exit, and the bearded man led by him beat Chen Jing upside down with just one palm, spitting blood from his mouth.

"Damn...... Xiao Ding, go and get that wooden box in my dark room! ”

Seeing this scene, Chen Zhan no longer hesitated and shouted loudly.

Behind him at the table, a thirty-year-old man with a white face and beard bowed his head, and with a movement of his toes, he rushed out of the hall in an instant, and even the bearded man could not stop him.

"Good! Good! ”

Seeing that Chen Zhan's guards had such a remarkable figure, Chen Jing, who was vomiting blood, laughed wildly, he put his daughter Chen Xi aside carefully, plucked up his spirit again, and fought towards the bearded man.

"Up! Let's go together! Drag until Xiaoding comes back! ”

The other elders of the Chen clan also roared angrily, rushed over, and fought with the group of yellow-clothed people.

Although their momentum was okay for a while, they were old and weak after all, and their qi and blood were insufficient, and they were finally pressed down by the man in yellow who was not afraid of death.

"It's ......"

Chen Jing, who raised his palm and beat a man in yellow to the point that his brain burst, suddenly softened, and his eyes showed disbelief: "This is poison? It's so poisonous. ”

"Exactly, if it weren't for this poison, we wouldn't have swaggered in." The arrogant young man's voice sounded again.

"Next! Shameless! ”

"Old fellow, are you trying to stall until that little thing comes to relieve you?"

The boy laughed again.

Chen Guo suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, he raised his head, and not far from the hall, he actually lay a skinned bloody corpse.

The bloody corpse could no longer see its former appearance, but it still held a wooden box in its arms.

Inside the box was an ancient book and a few strange talismans.

"Xiao Ding!" Chen Zhan's eyes were cracking.

Chen Kuang only felt that his mind was black for a while, and his hand movements slowed down for a moment, and his arm bones were broken by the bearded man's kick, and he fell out, and it was difficult to get up.

"Hey, cousin, this little girl's skin is delicate."

With another wave of his hand, the bearded man knocked a clan elder who stepped forward to stop him into a bloody clot.

He stretched out his big hand and grabbed Chen Xi in the palm of his hand:

"How about you and my uncle give her to me after enjoying it?"

"You rough embryo can only eat people, who would dare to give her to you? Don't give! ”

The young man laughed strangely, his voice was erratic, and no matter how anxious Chen Zhan looked, he couldn't find his true body.

"You bad boy is getting less and less cute."

The bearded man muttered, and he looked at the wooden box and talisman in the arms of the bloody corpse, "What is that?" Can you please your uncle with what you bring to him? ”

"Chen Heng's father left the side door, no fart!"

"Oh."

The bearded man replied in disappointment.

At this time, there was no suspense in the fight between the two sides, it was almost a one-sided slaughter, and only a few clan elders like Chen Zhan were left, and they were still struggling to resist.

"Goo...... Goo ......"

The bearded man swept his eyes boredly, he looked at the girl in his hand, and the fragrance of the girl was wisps and wisps, so that he couldn't help but move his index finger.

"The side door left by my father?"

At this moment, a voice as warm as jade suddenly came.

The people and horses on both sides of the battle were stunned, and at the gate of the mansion in the distance, there were two rare white horses, carrying people on them.

"Why, I've never heard of my father's relics?"

The bearded man's face changed, he seemed to have thought of something, and he was about to throw the big knife.

But his hand was just halfway up.

A feathered arrow burst through the air, piercing his skull.

The watermelon juice that seemed to burst with blood was splashed all over Chen Xi's face was stunned, and he couldn't even cry.

Sharp arrows pierce the air.

In the dense and dazzling shadow of arrows, the fleeing yellow-clothed people were shot and killed with understatement.

The skull burst open, and the red and white things dripped, and the smell was terrible.

This extremely freehand and extremely bloody scene made Chen Zhan stunned, he looked at the door of the mansion, and his hands couldn't help but tremble.

"Chen Heng? You are crazy! How dare you kill my cousin like this! ”

The arrogant young man's voice sounded again, and at this moment, he was less calm like a cat catching a mouse, but he was a little more anxious.

At the gate of the house.

Chen Heng glanced behind him lightly, and the fox Qiu Dayu woman who followed him all the way hurriedly understood, took a feather arrow in her hand, and respectfully handed it to him.

"You've hidden it so badly."

The fingers that have been stroking the qin since childhood are as slender as jade, and they can easily pull the six-stone bow into a full moon, but the palm of the hand does not tremble in the slightest, like an ancient pond without waves for ten thousand years.

Celestial man bends the bow.

Arrows are like lightning.

The bowstring slammed, and a figure fell down at the head of a water pavilion with the sound of pain.
